Somewhere on Psychotherapynetworker there is an ~ one hour video. You only need to watch less than five minutes of it to get how those diagnosis so many of you covet was build on a house of cards, a poker game, and a throw of the dice. And, by a show of hands on who wants the diagnosis in or out of the DSM. No scientific evidence needed, Bipolar ll in, and Aspergers out...The people on the committees were even abhorred by this behavior

If the label comforts one, gives you (plural) purpose, and moves you from point A to point B...then it is the right thing to seek. And, specially for you, Hazelgirl, if it can pull you out of the quagmires you continuously find yourself.
